    Yeah, it’s great. I bet it’s even better than squid jerky!

    Squid jerky is healthier for you.

    If it was healthy, it wouldn’t be so sublimely divine . . .

    I love the way good fudge just melts in your mouth . . .

    I only like peanut butter fudge–guess I am not a true fudge lover:(

    I have never met a fudge I didn’t love. SM, my grandma loved peanut butter fudge. I always thought she invented it. 🙂

    My grandma made old fashioned fudge – the kind you boil then beat on a marble slab until it lost it’s gloss and got hard. I loved that woman and I LOVED her fudge.

    But GCY, didn’t you see that dark chocolate now is proven to have metabolic benefits? People who eat a little dark chocolate every day lose more weight than people who never eat chocolate. Is it ridiculously optimistic to hope that dark chocolate fudge, with all that good milk in there as well, would be even better for us?

    How about a sushi roll made of different fudge: Dark fudge as outside rind, white fudge as inner rice-look and center of your fave flave as peanut butter, maple, cookies/cream, etc! Or jerky shaped fudge! (Tried googling it with N/A…hey, time to invent it!

    Ooooh, JeanKit, I’ll be right over for some of that.

    I’m with you, SM, I’m a PB fudge person. Though, if it’s crumbly, I’ll “manage” to like the regular kind!

    Do you have a recipe, Emma? I make the old fashioned type of fudge (except I don’t have a marble slab) when I make it. Mom and I have gotten in the habit of making it on my birthday. My grandma used the old fashioned recipe, too she just left the chocolate out and put peanut butter in.

    A friend of mine made it — I will see what I have do. Now, I have a recipe of chocolate meltaway fudge, so maybe we could make pumpkin fudge and top it with that.

    Here’s the recipe for PUMPKIN FUDGE:

    Ingredients

    2 tablespoons butter

    2 1/2 cups white sugar

    2/3 cup evaporated milk

    1 cup white chocolate chips

    7 ounces marshmallow creme

    3/4 cup canned pumpkin

    1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

    1 teaspoon vanilla extract

    Directions

    1.Line a 9×9 inch pan with aluminum foil, and set aside.

    2.In a 3 quart saucepan, heat milk and sugar over medium heat. Bring to a boil, stirring occasionally with a wooden spoon.

    3.Mix in pumpkin puree and cinnamon; bring back to a boil. Stir in marshmallow creme and butter. Bring to a rolling boil. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 18 minutes.

    4.Remove from heat, and add white chocolate chips and vanilla. Stir until creamy and all chips are melted. Pour into prepared pan. Cool, remove from pan, and cut into squares. Store in a cool, dry place.

    And this is the recipe for Chocolate Meltaway Fudge:

    MELT-AWAY FUDGE

    3 cups sugar

    3/4 cup butter

    1 (5 1/3 oz – small) can evaporated milk

    1 (12 oz.) pkg. semi-sweet chocolate pieces

    1 (7 oz.) jar marshmallow cream

    1 tsp. vanilla extract

    In 2 quart glass mixing bowl, combine sugar, butter, and evaporated milk. Cook in microwave on about 7 for 12 minutes stirring occasionally. Stir in chocolate pieces until melted. Add marshmallow cream and vanilla extract. Beat until well blended. Pour into buttered baking dish. Cool at room temperature. Cut into squares.

    Maybe you make the pumpkin fudge in a larger pan and pour the chocolate fudge on top after the pumpkin fudge is cooled. Not sure, but worth a try.

    One thing I do know for sure, I gained 2 lbs when I got on the scales the next day — after this was served at a Thanksgiving dinner!
